PLEATS PLEASE ISSEY MIYAKE

Pioneering Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake founded his Tokyo-based design studio in 1970. However, it was not until the subsequent decade that he would begin experimenting with advanced construction methods, culminating in the creation of his now-iconic garment pleating technique. Pleats Please Issey Miyake offers elevated womenswear basics with graphic impact and innovative silhouettes, made possible through the utilization of signature patented knife-edge folds—and practical in their comfort and easy care. Classically feminine, body-skimming cuts are rendered in simple black or vivid jewel tones for a simple yet striking appearance.
